Who Are We
Who Are We
The Campaign to End Child Poverty is made up of more than 130 organisations including children’s charities, child welfare organisations, social justice groups, faith groups, trade unions and others, concerned about the unacceptably high levels of child poverty in the UK. These groups have united behind the Campaign because there is an urgent opportunity to ensure the Government keeps its promise to reach its targets of halving child poverty by 2010 and eradicating it by 2020.
We receive our funding from our members, all of whom share a common vision of a poverty-free nation. Our major funding members are: Barnardo’s, Child Poverty Action Group, The Children’s Society, The Frank Buttle Trust, NCH, NSPCC, and Save the Children.
Our goal is simple - to eradicate child poverty - and our aims are clear:
- Inform the public about the causes and effects of child poverty;
- Forge a commitment between and across the public, private and voluntary sectors to end child poverty by 2020;
- Promote the case for ending child poverty by 2020 with this and every future Government.
